CBS News updates transgender term guidelines to include ‘biological sex at birth': report

CBS News has updated its style guidelines regarding transgender individuals to use the term "biological sex at birth," according to a new report.

According to The Wrap, Tom Burke, the network’s senior director of standards and practices, sent out a memo informing the organization that the network "will use the term biological sex at birth" with "no quotes needed." The memo reportedly came ahead of reports on Supreme Court hearings about challenges to state bans on transgender athletes taking part in women's sports.
